There Are Five C’s To Consider When Choosing The Best Sunglasses
July 22nd, 2009
When deciding on the best sunglasses, you will be met with a wide range to choose from, so where should you begin? Do you just go for the cheapest pair as you’ll only break them as usual, or do you decide now is the time to get yourself a decent pair of designer sunglasses, which are the best and are they worth the added bucks?
The five C’s to think about are Comfort, Colour, Clarity, Care and Cost.
The best sunglasses for an individual should be comfortable and a good fit. While most sunglasses will be OK for normal everyday use, some activities may require a few extras. If you are buying for some sports such as cycling, you will benefit from getting padded arms and nose clips as this will stop any soreness from excessive movement.
A further consideration will be the colour of your sunglasses as not all colours suit every skin type or the conditions in which you tend to wear your glasses. Consider for a moment if you were driving in really bright sunlight, then you will find that blue lenses will help with clarity although an all-rounder to consider would be brown lenses. Clarity can also be improved with polarised lenses, these would be particularly useful for pilots and fisherman.
A core issue you must be concerned with when considering the best sunglasses is your eye care. There are still too many people taking risks by not getting sufficient protection from UV rays. While there are different types of ultraviolet waves, all you need to worry about is making sure your sunglasses offer at least 98% (or over) protection against UV rays.
Now for one of the big one, how much will the best sunglasses cost? If you are happy with a pair for a fiver simply because you usually lose or break them, then so be it. However, do not expect your $5 ones to compare in any way with the more expensive designer ones such as Oakley or Electric sunglasses. The reason the designer sunglasses are priced as they are, is not simply because they are designer ones. These glasses are of a higher quality developed over years of technological research and tight quality control systems. The old adage applies here, “you get what you pay for”!
So you know the five Cs to consider, all you need to do now is to go and find your ideal pair. I particularly like Electric sunglasses but there are many others to choose from and remember, even designer sunglasses can be priced fairly low.
